Back

y = 1/2x

Front

In slope-intercept form y = mx + b, which value represents the slope?

Back

Front

Given the equation y = -3x - 5, what would the ordered pair be if you subbed in x = 2?

Back

(2, -11)

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 0?

Back

0

Front

What does the 'm' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The slope of the line.

Front

What does the 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept of the line.

Front

If the slope of a line is negative, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

The line decreases from left to right.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
